De-Stress Saturday: Less Mess = Less Stress

🍀Spring🍀 Clean Time!

I’ve been known as both a clutter bug and a shutter bug 

1. I save everything 
2. I take photos of everything ~ hence I accumulate so much space on my devices and memory 

My best friend, Melody, has advised me of this: 

In order to organize, you’ve got to minimize!

Based on

De-Clutter Your House, De-Stress Your Body ~ Dr. Oz (Tuesday, 2/24/2015) *

Mess = Stress

🏡If your home is cluttered, you have physical & mental stress😱

👆Higher blood pressure

70% clutter 🐝bugs🐞 struggle w/obesity or being overweight😖

😜Feeling overwhelmed ~ starts off & sets tone of day😝

Mess spreads like cancer ~ metastasizes. ~ Dr. Oz

Closets

1. Get rid of what you don’t like, use or wear 

2. Categorize ~ like by season

Reverse hang clothes, upon wearing hang correct way, remove items that haven’t been worn after 6mos

We wear 20% of your clothes 80% of the time

Drawers

Change your mindset

Language: instead of “junk drawer” –> utility drawer

Separate by piles: belongs here, somewhere else, in trash

Put like things together

Free 💰money💸 drawer: coupons, 🎁gift cards💳

💊Medicine💉 cabinet: only keep stuff you use ~ so everything is easy to find (reduces you buying extra)
